is it ok to eat sweets or fried foods on "cheat days"? or do i need to avoid them all together?

Question

What to do if i don't eat sweets, junk, and haven't had a soda in 3 years, but how do I fight fried food cravings?

Answer 1

You can be human: I assume you are on a weight loss or restricted diet. One of the important things to plan to be successful is to make sure the experience is not so miserable that you cannot maintain it. That's what cheat days are for. If you give yourself a break every once in a while, it makes it more agreeable to continue the plan. Cheating means eating what is normally not allowed, so anything goes.

Answer 2

Each person is: different in terms of how they approach setting healthy nutrition goals or weight loss plans. Some people give themselves "cheat days" to prevent being discouraged. People on low carb diets would probably want to avoid sweets. People on low fat diets would probably want to avoid fried foods. What is important is that our diet is balanced. If you want to lose weight - insure that calories burned

Answer 3

Depends: It really depends on how uncomfortable you will feel. Do you have access to a pool or lake?

Answer 4

Personal decision: That is more a personal decision and may depend on your financial situation. If you can get a reliable unit for a good cost, go for it.

Answer 5

Repeat: If you are past the window you will need to repeat the test.

Answer 6

Start again: Most sites will say you cannot complete test if you are too late, - typically return between 48-72 hours. Most likely you will need to start another test.

Answer 7

Interesting question: Is the question asking what to do about discomfort caused by wearing certain clothing? (clothing itself is not alive and has no feelings.) a person could have some sensory nerve problems in the skin that signal pain when that part of the skin is touched by clothing (a dermatologist or neurologist can look into the matter). One can try wearing different fabrics to see if softer fabrics help.

Answer 8

Grooming & Clothing: I would guess that the only thing a doctor can say to this is to not wear that clothing. This question is way out of bounds for this medical application. One gets clothing advise from the salesperson at a good store. One does not go to the doctor to learn how to dress.

Answer 9

Symptoms: This malformation is due to pressure in the brain pushing down on the back portion, the cerebellum. Headaches, nausea, dizziness, muscle weakness, and ringing in the ears (tinnitis). Other neurological symptoms, such as restless leg syndrome, sleep apnea, problems with swallowing. An MRI of the head and specialist care by a neurologist will help to diagnose and treat this problem.

Answer 10

Depends on activity: If you are straining and lifting heavy amounts, you could have more headaches and numbness/tingling. Some people can have dizziness and passing out with exertion. Days in which there is no exertion may be associated with less headache and other symptoms. Some patients have constant symptoms because the cerebellar position does not change for them with position or activity.

Answer 11

Takes 4 days: You can expect about a 4 day interval to return to your usual self after a "bad meal.". Food components: proteins, sugars, vitamins etc. Usually take about that long to clear through your body. That is also why people can have so much difficulty figuring out food allergies. There's a lot of overlap in potential causes of symptoma unless they're on a true elimination diet.

Answer 12

Takes time to heal: We an feel the effects of a "bad" food within hours to up to 7 days. The food has to be processed and if you are intolerant or allergic you may feel the effects for a week.
